Description

When the average American thinks of the Flash, they usually think of Barry Allen because in many ways he is the definitive version of the character. Barry has been referenced throughout pop culture in everything from films like “Catch Me if You Can” to a legion of DC cartoons and even had his own live action TV show on CBS in the early 1990s. The typical modern comic fan however is more likely to name the Flash as Wally West because he is the current Flash active in the DCU. The legacy of the Flash however actually began with Jay Garrick in the early 1940s when Flash Comics # 1 landed on newsstands across the country. It wasn’t published by DC but rather All American Publications, one of the three companies which would merge together to form DC Comics as we know it today.
